I went ahead and bought the $100 accessory pack today instead of the $50 otterbox case. I just couldn't pass up the extended battery, the shell/holster case (which isn't nearly as bad as I thought and it fits the extended battery), some decent headphones, screen protectors, and a sweet car charger that can charge to phones. The car charger is nice because my wife is always telling me her phone is more important to charge whenever we are driving around anywhere.
